Five bikes and six hardy riders participated in the annual fall colour ride. The temperature ranged from 10 to 16 degrees under partlly sunny and cloudy skies.
The ride started in Orleans and we followed the Ottawa River east through Cumberland, Rockland, Wendover, Lafaivre, L'Orignal to Hawkesbury. After a bio break we crossed the river into Quebec and followed it past the Carillo Dam to Lachute.
We followed route 327 to Morin Heights and then stopped in Saint Sauveur for lunch at Moe's Resturant. We turned west via route 364 and followed this hilly and multi-curved highway.
At Weir we went south to Lachute via route 327 past Carlin Lake Golf Course.
We travelled about 400 K during eight hours and enjoyed the mostly golden, yellow and brown leaves. The leaves had peaked earlier in the week. Hopefully there will be more riding prior to the snow.
